Notes: Grandpa learned the Squid Sauce recipe from Nonna. We always served this on Christmas Eve when we celebrated at our home. We learned the recipe for the surprisingly tasty Tuna Sauce in 1991 from Grandpa's cousins in Italy. It has become popular with our family. A serving of Pasta with Tuna Sauce is pictured in the photo on the divider of this section.
